6.00.01 Whispered Words By: Jennifer

Thinking back to how you acted,
I can’t believe that they were lies,
And as these tears keep on flowing,
I think of your disguise.

You use to laugh at every moment,
And you spent hours listening to me breathe.
You use to watch me from a distance,
Whispering words as peaceful as the breeze.

But whatever happened to those good old days?
Tell me when the sky turned gray.
Who told the sun to walk away?
Who let you start the game you played?

How many tears have to fall?
How many promises have to be broken?
How many times before you’re sorry?
For all the things you’ve spoken.

How many stars that forget to shoot?
How many wishes that don’t come true?
How many times and how many lies?
Before I can be with you.

After all you’ve done and all you’ve said,
And all the words that caused such dread,
My heart has died untimely deaths.
Over whispered words that meant much less.

I sit here sad and wondering why,
What I had done to deserve those lies?
What did I do to make you mad?
That gave you the right to take all I had.

Careless whispers in the breeze,
Worthless words begging please,
Got me down on my hands and knees,
Dying over a heartless tease.

Sitting here watching the days go by,
Just wishing into a blackened sky,
One day that star will finally shoot,
And maybe then I’ll be with you.
